Description
History: Giesinger started as a garage brewery in Munich-Birkenau in 2006. In 2007, 300 hectoliters of beer were produced and sold in Birkenau. In 2009 we already produced an impressive 750 hectoliters of beer in our small backyard brewery. When we finally reached the magic limit of 1,000 hectoliters for the first time in 2011, the premises in Birkenau were completely exhausted. A new location was needed and found in the neighbourhood of Munich-Giesing. The new brewery opened in 2012 and continued to grow, therefore a second facility was opened in 2018.

Suddenly "big" entrepreneur: Today we have 20 fermentation and storage tanks in our brewery. Giesinger became Munich's second largest private brewery almost overnight: With our current brewing plant, we can produce up to 12,000 hectoliters of beer per year, and after the opening of the second brewery even more.

Draught Shortlived fluffy white head over clear metallic golden beer. Rainwater, light green leaves, dry spices. Bit metallic flavour overlying pale malts, bit peppery finish, but generally demure. Light beer, feels more carbonated than it looks. Boring.

Lightly hazy yellow-amber, flowery nose with light grain notes. Decent body for alcohol free, not too sweet but a little maltiness. Hop flavor is a bit flowery, almost more like a light malt soda. Not bad.
